Niecy Nash, well-known for her roles in "The Bernie Mac Show," "Reno 911!" and "Clean House," has joined "The Insider" as a celebrity panelist!

Niecy will be debating with "The Insider"'s Lara Spencer, Samantha Harris and Chris Jacobs about the buzzworthy headlines that everyone is talking about.

  • The Insider needs to get rid of Niecey Nash and the entire panel idea. It really has no credibility now. The show and panel is annoying.

  • Format change is horrible. Hard to give credibility to panelists. Seems so contrived. TV camera has to swing back and forth to capture speakers. Distracting, and panelists have to lean back so we can see all of them. Silly. Just have them sit in a straight line or cut to their desks.

  • I do not like panel. Distracting to see them swiveling in their changes; odd angles to see speaker on wall and panelists. Looks constrained.

  • Niecy is a racist, she obviously doesn't like Sarah Palin because she is white.

  • I see more of Star Jones than Niecy Nash on the revamped Insider, "Oh". Niecy is very annoying and Star brings intellect to the show. But, if Niecy signed a contract it may not be bye-bye so quickly. Please don't bring Niecy back for next season.

  • Niecy is great...but good GOD! She really needs to stop saying, "Oh" in that voice after everything she says! It's becoming like a nervous tick.

    • Niecy is great, fun and lively. She is real not stuffy and a "show off" . She never name drops like a certain guess host.

  • geez, she is awful and without a original thought. If they wanted to add a token person why not downtown julie brown or simon cowell's ex, terri.

    They'd be charming, cute, funny, and interesting.

  • Niecy,

    We miss your flair on Clean House. Not crazy about the format of the Insider--it's a waste of your talents. This bland blog format of a show does not give you close ups nor does it give you a full body shot. We want to see more of you and less of the flat makeup and dull male

    • Next time use an english dictionary! It will add validity to your comments if you could spell and use proper grammar.

  • Niecy is no worse than some of these other "bore-me-to-tears" hosts they have on television. She might liven it up a little - all of them, so tight-ass, cornballs. And as for Sarah Palin, who's dumb as a back of rocks, need to get out of politics. She's the female version of Bush. I'm waiting for responses....

  • The show was great before the format change. The convoluted, poorly-acted "arguments" and "banter" are unwatchable. Lara Spencer has lost what little credibility she had by partiipating in this ridiculous farce. Bring back the old format!

    • I agree the show is poorly done. Too many personalities that don't flow well together. Also too many cookie cutter people. Lacks diversity and luster. Perhaps add a Latino personality to wakeup the show.
